Signed rulings
A grounded sample of orders signed by this judge, with the verbatim dispositive language.
“we agree with the district court's grant of summary judgment in favor of the defendants on Count one. We also conclude that the court properly granted summary judgment to the defendants on Counts two and three because Amundsen failed to sufficiently allege facts in support of his conspiracy claim and failed to file a timely appeal under Illinois law, respectively.”
“Because the district court did not err in dismissing Plaintiff's IDEA claim for reimbursement on the merits, Plaintiff's claims against the State Board were also properly dismissed.”
“Under this reasoning, Tyson and Harvey are not similarly situated and, therefore, summary judgment was appropriate because Tyson failed to prove her prima facie case of race discrimination.”
“Because the district court made clear that it would have imposed the same prison term upon him regardless of whether his DWI was classified as a crime of violence or not, we affirm.”
“Accordingly, because exigent circumstances justified Officer Tomey's entry, we uphold the district court's denial of Jenkins's motion to suppress.”
“Brazelton is entitled to a remand for re-sentencing.”
“We uphold the denial of Dean's motion to suppress and AffiRM his conviction.”
